(a) Define ex (n,H) where H is a graph with at least one edge and n⩾∣H∣. Show that, for any such H, the limitn→∞lim(n,H)/(n2) exists.
[You may not assume the Erdős-Stone theorem.]
(b) State the Erdős-Stone theorem. Use it to deduce that if H is bipartite then limn→∞ex(n,H)/(n2)=0.
(c) Let t⩾2. Show that ex (n,Kt,t)=O(n2−t1).
We say A⊂Zn is nice if whenever a,b,c,d∈A with a+b=c+d then either a=c,b=d or a=d,b=c. Let f(n)=max{∣A∣:A⊂Zn,A is nice }. Show that f(n)=O(n).
[Zn denotes the set of integers modulo n, i.e. Zn={0,1,2,…,n−1} with addition modulo n.]
